Ingredients

  • 3 medium bell peppers sliced
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 1 head broccoli chopped into florets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Chili Lime Shrimp
  • Juice from 2 limes about ¼ cup
  • 1 tablespoon coco aminos can substitute soy sauce - see notes
  • 2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon EACH: cumin, paprika, and salt
  • 1 ½ lb. peeled shrimp

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Place the peppers, onion, and broccoli on a baking sheet and toss with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 25 minutes, mixing halfway through.
  3. Once the veggies are in the oven, start the shrimp. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the lime juice, coco aminos, chili powder, cumin, paprika, and salt. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let the shrimp marinate for 10 minutes.
  4. Drain the marinade into a large frying pan over high heat. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes, or until it starts to reduce. Add the shrimp to the pan and cook for 2-3 mintues on each side.
  5. When the veggies are cooked, add the shrimp to the tray and serve right away.

Notes

  • If you use soy sauce, omit the salt.
  • If you'd like some extra color on your shrimp, sprinkle them with a little minced parsley.
